Keeping the Kernel Klean

"We, the undersigned Linux kernel developers, consider any
closed-source Linux kernel module or driver to be harmful and
undesirable. We have repeatedly found them to be detrimental to
Linux users, businesses and the greater Linux ecosystem. Such
modules negate the openness, stability, flexibility and
maintainability of the Linux development model and shut their users
off from the expertise of the Linux community."
